“How to place architecture in a spectrum that honors it’s context and unequivocally understands it”.
A hotel located in the Caribbeans as part of a national reserve, that expected one exhaustive challenge; how to place architecture in a spectrum that honors it’s context and unequivocally understands it.
Acknowledging this balance implies human interaction with the land not only to be respectful but to have a genuine interest in exploring its overwhelming beauty.
“We keep asking questions until we find the right answer. Surpassing our own expectations of what is possible allows us to do so for others ”.
Consequently, the hotel is set up through a “glamping” modality. Smaller tents host guest bedrooms at different levels of the steep terrain and are connected through a single line of a cable car. It’s highest platform holds the common areas containing the pool areas, restaurant and lobby. These spaces amplify the scenic views through open and visually permeable buildings, whilst creating intimate and cozy indoor environments. The experiences they create for their guests look for an experimental interaction with their surroundings, while allowing introspective appreciations for themselves.
